We are thrilled to have the StrongStart Program offered at Douglas Park. The program is organized and facilitated by Ms. Rachel Susheski. Please see below for more information about StrongStart.

StrongStart in Langley

Participate with your young child (aged birth to five) in a free, play-based program. StrongStart BC programs provide rich learning environments designed for early learning development – language, physical, cognitive, social, and emotional. Qualified early childhood educators employed by the Langley School District lead learning activities where children find opportunity to make friends and interact with others of similar ages.

The overall learning experience is shared as parents and caregivers attend with their children and are encouraged to get involved in activities like telling stories, playing games, and serving healthy snacks. Join us to learn new ways to support your children’s learning, get information about community programs and services, and make valuable connections with others attending the program. Centres are open Mondays through Fridays, except on school holidays and Pro-D days. In the event of inclement weather or power outages, call the school before you come or check school websites.

At no cost to families, StrongStart is offered at seven Langley locations during the school year

Drop-in sessions will continue with varying limits depending on the size of the centre. Facilitators will post a sign outside of the centre when it is full. All sessions will be 3 hours, and facilitators will offer one outdoor session per week.
